ANOTHER ANDERSON.

If charges of any kind-not anony-
nous letters and newspaper charges,
but formal charges, verified by affida-
Vlt-are to be made against the admin
lStratlon, 1t is matter of regret that
they cannot come from a source which
Is beyond question. An eX-policeman,
man discharged for conduct unbecom-
ing man and officer, has printed let
ter in which he makes certain indefinite
charges. The letter is gladly given
publication by certain papers which
nave consistently attacked the adj
mlnlStration-eVen villified it. There
is no honest citizen of Minneapolis
who will desire anything but the
swift exposure of any rottenness found
TO exist in official conduct, but there are
few honest ones who will not be slow to
credit vague charges from such source.
The writer of that letter has private
wrong (aS he thinks) to redress, and the
letter was written for the purpose of
getting even" Mayor AMES' state
ment is the same as made at the time of
the discharge, and is verified by the pub
hShed reports then made. AS it stands,
it is question of veracity between
the mayor and a discharged po-
liceman, who would pose as a
martyr, and the public will not
hesitate where to place its credence.
There is something behind this matter
and behind the John ANDERSON" let
tiers. A political influence is at work
and some OF the prime movers are one
time Democrats. Sufficient facts are
not known to warrant a full statement,
but the GLOBE has reason to believe
that back of the ANDERSON letters stood
false friend, willing to wound and yet
afraid to strike. The end is not here.
While the good fame of the administra-
ton is not imperiled by such charges,
it is interested in ending them.
